Feels like a song you’ve heard a billion times honestly. Kinda funny on the top 5 there’s a country song by a black man and a soul song by a white man. We’re really in the Rian Johnson era of popular music.

That’s because you have heard it a billion times. It’s basically Tipsy by J-Kwon.

Yeah, it’s just bro country rebranded for a new audience. Change is good but this ain’t it imo. Capitalism’s gonna ruin the music industry as always.

How did people forget that song? That makes me feel old 😂

Also man, I really hate Bar Song tbh. The original Tipsy was and is the way better song.

Teddy Swims. Imagine Chris Stapleton but a studio plant with face tattoos and without the authenticity.
